Mothers Day 2025
Mothers day was perfect and began with a perfect day weather wise!
It began with Mom opening gifts in the morning. After the gifts, we packed up and went out to Mom’s favorite China Buffet and everyone enjoyed a super meal. After eating we took Mom out shopping.
We came back home in time to watch the Sunday race, then went back out for Ice Cream at the Dairy Queen (which was James’ treat). All in all a great day and a great time was had by all.
James Bachelor Degree 2025
The final of three graduations took place at the Wayne State Hall. James had to get there an hour early so we dropped him off then did some exploring on our own before entering into the hall. One of these was walking over the bridge on the Lodge freeway and snapping off a couple pictures of the traffic.
This was by far the largest of the 3 graduations and was a little more formal as they had a small orchestra or band and they did a great version of the National Anthem as well.
After the graduation we headed out to Bubba’s for dinner, then came home for more of the graduation cake and James got the remainder of his graduation gifts. A whirlwind experience for the whole family.
French Language Graduation 2025
After a beautiful graduation ceremony and graduation cake and gifts, James got up the next day and went right back to work on his second graduation. This was to certify that he is fluent in a second language (last year we sent him to France with this day in mind). This ceremony was at the Wayne State Hall which is located by the soccer/football field. This was a real nice ceremony and was a real pleasure to attend. Everything was broadcasted on the large screen TV so you could say there was not a bad seat in the house. Once this graduation ended, we only had about 2 hours till the next one.
